Dwyane Wade Video: Watch Flash's Buzzer-Beating Halfcourt Shot vs. Thunder
Dwyane Wade is one amazing talent.
The do-everything combo guard for the Miami Heat can score at will, run the break and play killer defense.
He can also drill half-court shots against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
With time running out in the third quarter, Wade caught an inbound pass and had time for one dribble before he had to heavy a 65-footer at the buzzer.
Swish.
Wade drilled it to get the Heat within 11 points entering the fourth quarter.
Nick Collison gave a very half-hearted attempt to block the shot and it clearly didn’t distract Wade one bit.
In what could very well be a preview of the NBA Finals, the Thunder looked like the much better team on Sunday night in the 103-87 win.
Despite hitting 60 percent of his shots, Wade didn’t get the ball at all in the fourth quarter and ended up finishing with 22 points and four assists.
It was an odd game for Wade. Heading into the night he was a mere 6-of-32 from three point land. On Sunday he drilled 3-of-4 from behind the arc.
Wade is all about the dribble-drive and creating contact in the lane. He is one of the few guards at any level of the sport that doesn’t chuck up copious amounts of three’s. Considering he was shooting 18 percent from downtown before his red-hot run, I can understand why.
Maybe he should start shooting more 65 footers.
